Back in the Day 3: The Final Chapter starts in more modern day and is designed to take you back almost 3 decades to where Back in the Day 2: The College Years left off. Through the use of reflection you go from more current time back to 1978 where the 2nd book of the Trilogy leaves off and eventually comes to an end. The story tells of good times and sad times and what the characters did to make it through it all.
